The high fame, and ever-increasing popularity of our British Bard, in proportion as his works are more illustrated and more known, has _occa sioned many Books,. and is constantly giving birth to more, whose object is, in some way or other, to gratify the Public, by dwelling upon this favOurite topic. But no work has hitlo rto appeared, and we may venture almost to pro nounce that Otte can in future lie produced, in which So much of agreeable and well-digested in fOrmation on this subject will he found, as•intliis masterly, production Of Dr Deaxg. That , it is the result of 'much study, and many hours.devoted to research, in every possible line Irons which the materials could, be drawn, is -evident from the most casual inspection of these VolumeS, which will at °Wee •Indulge and greatly extend the de sire already prevalent, otheing informed of every thing material which can illuitrate the life, the writings, or the genius, of our inimitable , Dra matist. Dr. DRAKE has long established awell-founded reputation for successful research into the his tory of our Literature, accompanied by f$ correct and cultivated taste in appreciating its beauties. But *all that he . bai - before achieved in illustrating our Periodical Writers Ominous and delightful as those parts of his works are), will be thrown in to comparativii shade by this distinguished effort of his mind. It may he considered as a magnifi cent temple, dedicated to the genius of Snax , ;. SPRARR, who presides in it as the guardian deity, like - AuGusTus in the Pane projected by VIRGIL, In wedio milli CIiSAR erit. SHAKSTEARB is. every where, and always in view, immediately or rela4ively ; and an unity is thus bestowed upon a work of great variety, which it could not otherwise possess. The plan of the work is extremely. well digest ed, and cannot be better explained than in the words of the Author:-" With a viewr to distinct ness and perspienitv, of elucidation, the whole has been distributed into three parts or 'pictureS, entitled SBAKSPEARE otrat.c o.u,°---e SPEARS in London,'-_-!' Si AMtBARE• in Retire ment ;' which, though inseparably- united, as forming but portions of the same story, have yet, both in subject and execution, a peculiar charac ter to support."—Pref p. iv. The author thus fUrther develoPeiv the sAects of these three parts The first represents our Poet in the days of his youth, on the banks of the Avon, in the midst of rural imagery, occu pations, and amusements ; in ,the second we be hold him in the capital.of his country, in the cen tre of rivalry and competition, in the ketual pur suit of reputation and glory ; and in the third we accompany the venerated Bari to the shades of retirement,- to the bosom of domestic peace, and to the enjoyment of unsullied The further use made of this distribution is to give, under the first division, an accurate view of the customs, manners, characters, diversions, and other peculiarities of the country at that period. The second part comprises, with a general view of the contemporary Literature, a similar 'iew of the manners, customs, &c. of the Metropolis ; with a complete and critical view of the pocim to hiS memory 'Here is surely abnodant matter of atnnsement for tbe • tiantiten, of . poCttY, and-in particular for those of• our great and favourite Poet ; yet, co pious as "the matter appears, in this b r ief anent, it gteady extended by the'' . . rich and co pions manner in wkich, with indefatig hie dili gence, the author itaS'illustiated every •possif 1e point thailsas the - smallest reference ~to his sah . jeci. It is one of those works in which the ut hhi• bas exhitisted all •the necessary labour . ; leaving nothing to tke readet but to enjoy, 'or rather to luxuriate in, the abundance provided for The argtim 'he chapters abundantly 'point ot&t the 'contents. , . The work has no dec.orations, except A print of SHAKSPBARE'S Bust, from his monument at Stria ford ; and a plate of Autographs of the Poet. The subject of the first.chapter is rather confined. It treats only of the birth of S. of his faMily, and the orthography of his name. For th'e latter : point the author rather 'gives the preference to SHAKS.p2ARE, all Owing at the same time that tile Poet's o‘t : it orthography varied, and that 'it is " nearly, matter of intlifference." For the sake of unifor mity, in writing on this book', we have follir.ved the ofttography of Dr. 1)., iiirt we clearly prefer SttAKesPEARE, both On account Of the unifor'm rro- Ounciation, and etymology of the name, and be cause the best authorities, in and near the Poet's tithe, have generally agreed in that form. The second climiter. traces, chiefly _on conjectural groUnd, the education of the young Poet ; and takes aview of the commoil aids to Literature in use at-that period. Dr. D..is inclined to bestow on SttiocsPesaF. some little 'knowledge of languages, beyond the standard marked by Dr. FARMER: not, however, siViiitich . ai with the arguments Of that luminous critic, fit this estimate he is.supported by an anonymous writer in 'the Censure Literaria, whose words he quotes ; and perhaps there i• no great reason to dispute what these writers are inclined to grant to the BMA. But in the next chapter, Dr. D. endeavours, under the same gitidance,,to troili him an imitator of an obscure French Poet, merely from the repetition of the word suns in the well known line, " Sans teeth, r . crtts eyes, sans taste, sans every thing," we must protest agsiiist the insufficiency of the proof. It may fully be shown that every Poet, contemporary with SU AKSI'EARE, Crlea votive(' to fix suns as an .English word, ari d ' , set t it so without scruple : and_therefore the mere re petition of the word, without any parallel to the most remarkable part of the sentence, the " sans every thing," can never fix imitation upon R Pot so little likely to borrow petty helps front obscure sources. Supposing sans actually established as English, - it was just - us" obvious for an English Poet to repeat it, as for a French write' tO'do it in his own language; - and no degree of imitatitnn Can be inferred front it. We regret that Dr. D. suffered his better judgment, in this instance, to be misled. • V° be Continued ] COAL DUTIEL—We observe it is stated in smite of the Minist - erial Prints, that the subject OF the Duty on Coal his engaged. the attention of Government, and that some Legislative measure, on more just principles, is expected. We perfectly agree that nothing - can be . More unjust, eir more absurd, than the Coastwise Duty un this article, falling, as At does, with a most partial pressure on the Metropolis, anti the towns and places on the coast supplied With sea-borne coal. ‘Ve think that any measure tending to equalize this burthcn would bean act of. ji.stice ; but we own that. wt are anxious to have the subject investigated, not with the contracted views of a Custom-tionse cal culator, but with the enlarged comprehension of an enlightened Statesman or financier. No time can be more proper—no time can be mote fa vourable, considering . the facill'y of raising mo ney, than the present, for rctouning au impolitic system of taxation. We think that it was cleat ly proved in the last session, that no advantage ac crues to the Revenue trout the tax on Salt ; and We are persuaded, that when all the advantages of the low price of coal are duly estimated, it will appear that this also is not an article for direct taxation. We do not pretend to know the inten tion of Masters; but we 'shall give them credit if they take up the subject with a'Statesman-like spirit. We have, in some instances, hearth the Vresident of .the lioard of. Thule lay down the most enlightened and correct principles, but ac knowledge'hituself fettered' front acting upon them, by the interested prejudices of whets.— «%e trot that, in the present easy,, no influence will be allowed to intercept the benufirs which the community would derive from the execution of the good intentions that ate announced to (Morning chronicle.).
